I’ve been hearing output from Datenight since 2015 when they posted rough demos for the world to hear. In that time, they’ve played a bunch, refined their recordings, released some videos and have now officially unleashed their debut – Comin’ Atcha 100MPH.
The title is fitting as the music within is a bombastic onslaught of fast paced songs and punkish snarls. I can only imagine the sweat filled rooms this gets moving when performed live with audiences yelping along with the choral refrains of songs like “On the Block.”
There’s not a single song here over 2 minutes 30 seconds, a fitting structure for a band rooted in punk styles and even better for keeping the energy high for the duration.
